I made a tribute to Michael Paul Smith making a forced perspective of the forced perspective.....I never published the making of.........The final picture was posted at the group "Elgin Park". As I cannot photograph now, I am recycling old pictures! hahahaha...

A little weathering, mirrors, and some aerodynamics helped make this tractor trailer look good for a diorama, or the model railroad.

Forced perspective shot of two die cast cars on a piece of plywood on top of my car by a former body shop
I apologize, but I just couldn't resist.
Although this shot does give you a better view of the detail on the Thunderbird.
I personally don't gravitate towards red vehicles, but it works here.
Ironically despite spending a lot of time in Spain I don't actually visit many of their larger Carrefour hypermarkets as in more recent years I always walk out empty handed thanks to a poor selection of diecasts. This time I gave the one just outside of Barcelona another chance hoping the festive toy aisles would finally yield some goodies.
Well i'm pleased to say it didn't disappoint particularly when it came to Matchbox, I don't think i've ever seen so many different ranges in a Spanish retailer before! Not just the expected singles and multi-packs but also the latest Japan Series which really was an unexpected pleasure.
As per usual the Japan Series contains mainly recycled Moving Parts releases such as the debut release of their 1991 Mitsubishi Pajero. We knew it as the Shogun and for a period was a good seller here in the UK and this little model is a good replica of the shortened three door body style. Lots of detailing and complete with opening front doors.
Mint and boxed.
I built the Cadillac and the Impala both are 1:25 scale plastic kits, manufactured by Monogram Models. They're both from 1959.
The 1933 Cadillac is 1:32 scale - and the Porsche is 1:24 scale, both are die cast.
